880 miles...

Roger's take:
2 days + 2 trips from Springfield to STL = 880 miles. We can tell you where each "clean" gas station restroom is along I-44....and the ones to avoid. A couple of things I've learned over the past 2 days....Abby and I will NEVER live in a city with more traffic than Springfield (read previous post)....When your wife is hooked up to an IV getting meds it's best to do exactly what she says. Exactly. (Lesson #1 for pregnancy.) But this is the craziest thing I've learned the past 48 hours. Next time you have $45.00 burning a hole in your pocket don't take your wife out to a good dinner or any other type of date. Get in the car and drive to the nearest gas station. Put $35.00 in the tank, spend $10.00 on water, snacks, red bull and candy, and drive on the highway for 3+ hours with nothing but music on the radio. It really sucked that we had to come back yesterday and drive to STL today, but driving on the interstate is an awesome way to spend quality time with your wife. No TV. No computer. Nothing but each other, snacks, and an endless road. (However, if your wife is on meds and hates traffic, it's best to avoid rush hour in St.Louis)

In case you are like me and would rather watch a video instead of reading, here's a decent video I found about IVF. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3WypK9TpD34
